Increasing Iran Rhetoric.
My first thought when I hear this is that, “Man those Iranians keep interfering.”
Then I think 3 things. 1) That’s probably what Iraq says about us. 2) They wouldn’t be interfering if we weren’t there. And 3) I have this ever growing doubt that it might just be a whole lot more of this being generated by this guy and this guy.
Maybe I’m just so paranoid because of all the half-truths and lies that got passed around the first time. And from the off-the-record W quotes that say he doesn’t want to leave his office without having dealt with Iran.
Maybe so.
. . .
And maybe not.
Read the last paragraph of this link to see my thoughts/predictions from last month.

Of course, if you’re convinced that things were exaggerated in the case of going into Iraq, you’re never gonna believe anything else from this administration in this regard, even if it’s 100% legit.
But let’s just assume for a moment that it is legit, and Iran obviously isn’t going to do anything about it. What’s the solution?
Personally, I have little doubt that Iran is seeking to undermine stability in Iraq. The last thing Iran wants is a stable, constitutional democracy in Iraq. And I think this is (and is going to be) the hardest thing to deal with since 9/11.

better question . . .
But let’s just assume for a moment that it is not-legit, and the current administration obviously isn’t going to do change anything about it. What’s the solution?

The government of Iran is probably not involved. But the terrorist cells are hiding in Iran. Flushing out terrorists cells is impossible if house to house searches are not done by the Iranian government.
Don’t think that these cells will cease their actions once the US leaves Iraq. They have a strategic plan in the Middle East. They will never recognize the Democratic government of Iraq, not in a thousand years. That is why the UN should have created a neutral government from the start. These wars lasts decades unless the ringleaders are caught.

Actually, Derek, I’m fairly certain that Iran doesn’t have much of a problem with a stable, constitutional democracy in Iraq. What they DO have a problem with, in my opinion, is an Iraqi puppet government that serves U.S. interests. They’re less concerned about democracy and more concerned about U.S. footholds in the Middle East that threaten the sovereignty of nearly all the countries around.
And Nasdaq7, I wouldn’t recognize the Democratic government of Iraq either at this point. When some of the main leadership are from the INC that pushed for an invasion in the first place, and some of those are flat-out snakes and political opportunists, a stench starts to emerge from this awe-inspiring “bringing the light of democracy and freedom” rhetoric.
